There are '''three different workshops''' we run for classes of 10-20 people, each one focusing on a particular aspect of multimedia production, the language used can be '''english''' or '''italian'''. The workshop consists in an hands-on experience employing GNU/Linux for digital artisanship and tactical media,
exploring various ideas and practices of crafting and recycling technologies, to stimulate students towards the
invention of novel forms of interactive computing and social networking.

The workshop is held by ["Jaromil"] for classes of 10-20 people.
Upon request it can focus on a particular aspect of multimedia production and communication practices.

== About the software adopted ==
'''dyne:bolic''' is an operating system providing several instruments for creativity with multimedia: all that is needed to produce and share audio, video and images, from recording to editing and live streaming... as well a complete software development environment. Besides the particular attention to multimedia, dyne:bolic is extremely easy to employ and use, plus it runs efficently even on less recent computers.

=== 100% free ===
All components in dyne:bolic can be freely redistributed, copied and modified according to basic freedom rights for users indicated by the GNU license guidelines. This ensures students to be free to produce anything they want with what they learn, as their knowledge is openly shared and exchanged, not owned by any company that can restrict their rights to produce and redistribute creations.

In education we believe that '''independence from commercial influences''' is an important point to make it available to the most and to not endorse or promote merchantile interests within public institutions.

Since 2001 dyne.org is independently developing one of the few GNU/Linux operating systems '''considered 100% FREE by the Free Software Foundation''' itself, as they are also mirroring it on the gnu.org server, see:

 * http://www.gnu.org/links/links.html#FreeGNULinuxDistributions
 * ftp://ftp.gnu.org/mirrors/
As well by the Ibiblio public library on http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/dynebolic/

=== quality ===
As a real proof of quality and artisanal passion we dedicate in developing our tools, our creation has been nominated in the '''top 10 open source software of 2005''', when we also became part of the '''Linux Audio consortium of professional open source audio software'''.

=== wide adoption ===
Since its existance dyne:bolic GNU/Linux has been redistributed all across the world by magazines and of course being freely downloadable online, summing up to a reasonable estimation of '''half a million copies burned all across the globe'''. As of today our documentation base is rapidly growing and the community around it is fervently partecipating with experiences and ideas, while dyne:bolic comes complete with all compiler tools and documentation to be re-adapted by anyone to his or her own needs.
